These birds were produced as 'Murano Style' glass along with cats, penguins and I think there is a dog here on the board somewhere. They were made in Asia for Crystal Clear Collectables, Leonardo Glass and Badash Glass. The cat is still available from Amazon... I believe.

There are at least two for sale on eBay at the moment listed as Murano, and in the past I have seen them being sold on USA eBay for over $100 because they were described as Murano.

I will see if I can find the link to the dog!!

Thanks everyone. When I got him home (he was part of a large haul I bought at the Barras) I was suspicious of the matt base. The detail isn't there. He cost a few pounds so I am not that bothered. He wasn't sold as anything, just a bird. My dealer down the Barras rarely attributes her stuff unless marked or labelled.

Here is the link as promised Adam, and it links to a further link I started when I was a very new member here, so both are worht a read....the expensive glass these were being sold as were Dino Martens pieces!
